Can I Wear Hearing Aid While Using Ciprodex?

using ciprodex for a possible ear infection....i wear a simple dome type hearing aid...and think this began when I pushed the hearing aid in and lodged some wax in...washing ear helped, but it became sore. Can i wear the hearing aid while using these drops? My ear feels very plugged from the drops too..

ENT Specialist 's  Response
it is not advisable to wear hearing aid immediately after using ear drops as it may lead to water/eardrop logging into the earpiece of hearing aid which may lead further to interference with electronic items in hearing aid. as hearing aid manufacturer also don't give warranty for water spills. so u may end up in defective working of aid.
